Marigold - Jolly Jester
Cheerful, brightly striped flowers on tall stems are irresistible to butterflies. Dark red, sometimes almost brownish stripes adorn 5 cm (2 inch) single yellow flowers. This easy to grow annual is low maintenance and is equally at home in a container or in the garden. Drought tolerant plants prefer full sun and reach 1 metre.
